Fury 300gr Green Tips. All shot with the same HEAVY charge of BH209
First time shooting this year. Weather was nice.

Shot from bipod and off the shoulder using a shooting glove. No scope adjustments. Same POA.

There was no question concerning wads. The Veggie wad provided more seal and increased velocity over the wool.

A double Veggie wad increased the velocity, with the same weight charge by 80fps.

I wonder if .060 Poly wad used in my 45/70 cartridge gun (long range Sharps) would work ? I don't know as the rain keeps on raining !!! /Ed
 
your getting up there near 40 cal velocities
who would have thought two wads would make a difference, well at least I never did
good shooting
